The Course
The APS course consists of:
-
3 days of theoretical training
-
40 hours practical training in our Airbus 320 simulator
The above is split over 16 consecutive days, with 3 rest days included at various points. You must attend all days.
There is no test at the end of the course, however the final simulator exercise is treated as an assessment. This flight, along with your progress on the course, will determine whether you are issued with an APS certificate, or just an MCC certificate.
